Apparently, the Europhiles are arguing that you cannot be both Lexit/Brexit and support the Green New Deal. Curious logic. And, of course, a desperate attempt by the Europhiles to grasp at anything to discredit both Brexit and MMT, given that there is a high proportion of MMTers who prefer Britain leave the EU and that the EU disappears in its current form. And so it goes. Wolfgang Streek recently published an interesting academic article that bears on this discussion. That is what this blog post is about....
Well, never is a long, long time. Who knows what will happen in the future, but it fairly certain it won't be anytime soon and even more sure that it won't be the outcome of the present arrangements that are supposedly designed to make it happen. More liberal utopianism that disregards realities involving traditional values and national patriotism, for example, and social, political and economic asymmetry. Moreover, since liberalism is about freedom, it follows that attempts to impose it on the unwilling is illiberal.
